Nod my Head - A Writing Guide for Wattpad Writers by Mindchalk

Do you find yourself writing he nodded, she shook her head, he shrugged, over and over again? It gets tedious, and doesn't help at all when it comes to pin pointing your character's actual emotions. So I've made a book using notes I've been collecting over a few years to help you chose an alternative way to show that your character is angry, or sad, etc, plus many other writing tips and resources. Doesn't, he blinked at his watch, read better than, he looked at his watch ? Doesn't, he slugged across the wet cement, read better than, he walked down the street slowly. Avoid the white room in your story and replace telling with showing to give your readers a much better experience. **** When Alice storms across the room instead of walks, we know she's angry. We're expecting suspense. We're waiting for the next action. Maybe she'l punch a wall? Shout at her friend? Much better than, Alice walked across the room angrily, which gives your reader nothing to imagine.

Various Monster Anime Girls x Male Reader Collection by JukoThe10-Tails

A collection of short stories that can be anywhere from 1 to 5, pages of monster girl versions of different anime girls from different anime's. There might be multiple versions of the same girl, but as a different monster girl, supernatural, or yokai. Example, you might see hinata as a vampire in one but then a succubus in another. Each story will have a brief summary of the setting and you. Anime examples: Naruto, one piece, bleach, Dragon Ball, rwby, my hero academia, fairy tail, etc * Rwby isn't an anime, but details. Also expect single, twin, triple, and harem romances, in different stories of course. They'll be organized by species. I know it's not necessary, but to keep things clean and organized. So the new ones will typically be at the bottom of their category, unless they are in parts. Then I'll just put the next part underneath the previous part, for clean reasons. I know others don't do this, put I can't help it. Without it, it looks way too messy for my liking. Also assume all the male readers are human, unless stated otherwise. So if you just see "male reader", they are a human. This counts if it has "vampire hunter" before "male reader", he's still human but if you see "vampire" before "male reader", "vampire male reader", then he's a vampire. Hope that clears anything up. I was too lazy to change it after writing some already. * Also, I'll add human in the brief summary of each chapter, just in case. * I'll also have a brief summary of my versions of these monster girls in each chapter, as they might change based on the setting, but they'll probably remain the same. * I do not own the series, settings, characters, images, etc. All rights go to their respective owners. I only own the stories, (Y/N) and his story and abilities. Disclaimer some stories may contain strong language, blood, nudity, ecchi themes and/or lemon.
